Behind the scenes
Photos of me filming
In the photo above I am filming part of the scene where the couple are watching Titanic and it doesn't make them sad. In this picture I was using a Canon camera and a stedicam to film with. There is also a xoom microphone on the camera incase there was any sounds from the shoot that I wanted in the music video.
